Toyota Extended Warranty Thread U.S. (negotiated price list)

I got the 10 yr 100k mile Platinum for $1800 Big Two Toyota Gilbert AZ
Wow, Good job. From what I understand that is $200 below invoice for the 10yr/100k mile Platinum. Can you reply with this information so I can post it to the list?

1. Which plan (platinum, gold, or powertrain/years/mileage/deductible),
2. What it cost you,
3. Which dealership?
4. A point of contact/person

From the pinned list I gave "Stacey" (should actually be "Tracy") a call:

4. 10yr/100K miles/zero deductible
$2500.00
Lumโ€™s Toyota, Warrenton, OR
Stacy Burchfield, (503) 861-1144

She emphatically told me that the $2500 was a one-off deal that was mistakenly priced and will not happen again.

(I'm guessing this means take her off the list)

I'm going to try and get ahold of #1 & 2 tomorrow and will post back here with my results.

My apologies for that. That was the deal they agreed to when I bought my Land Cruiser. Originally in the Finance office they offered me a 7 year 120k platinum for $6900. I showed her this thread and told her I was going to buy my warranty 10 yr 100k mile platinum from Jerry at MidWest Toyota, unless they wanted to match his price. She told me she didnโ€™t know how he was selling them that low. She talked to the General Manager and came back with $2500 for the 10yr 100k mile platinum no deductible. Higher than Jerryโ€™s price but I wanted to give them my business. Also my bad about messing up her name. She was very pleasant and I enjoyed working with her. I will remove that deal from the list.
 
When I bought my 58 I reached out to Troy Dietrich and Jerry Johnson. I ended up using their pricing to get the same price from my dealership. Below are the prices I was offered.

I called at least 10 Toyota dealers across the U.S. and no one was even close to Jerry Johnson's prices. He is a very nice guy who values making his customers happy and recognizing that volume results in revenue. I could STRONGLY recommend working with him to get your warranty.

Have purchased many vehicles, have never purchased an extended warranty. For reasons to me (my age, desire to pass vehicle on with a transferrable warranty at some point) I decided to purchase a Toyota VSA.
Dealer could not match-and not close. No problem as I had previously exchanged eMail with Troy Dietrich. One telephone call and got it done. Recommend.

Troy squared me away on my last Sequoia. The Sequoia was 18 months old when I bought the plan from Troy, though I bought the Sequoia new 18 months prior. Troy mentioned at the time as long as I am the original owner and I am under 3yr/36k miles, they did it as new.
 
Welcome to the forum LAR! Itโ€™s a really good question that is well discussed in the following linked thread.

Thread 'Extended Warranty'
Extended Warranty

Lots of opinions for and against extended warranties. Toyota Vehicle Service Agreement (VSA) is an extended warranty by Toyota Financial Services.

The top plan is Toyota Platinum VSA. It is basically an extension of the factory warranty once your factory warranty has expired. For me, I want my warranty to be factory bumper to bumper for ten years or 100k miles. Platinum plan ten years 100k miles is closest to that. Thatโ€™s just me. Most people are fine with the factory warranty of three years or 36k miles. Itโ€™s an individual choice and only you can decide if itโ€™s for you.

I would not recommend thinking of a new vehicle as an investment. That is just a phrase sales people use and it couldnโ€™t be further from the truth. Vehicles are consumer goods that only depreciate. I wouldnโ€™t recommend thinking of an extended warranty as โ€œprotecting an investmentโ€ either. That is just another phrase used by sales people and itโ€™s deceptive. Think of an extended warranty as insurance to protect yourself from having to pay a large repair bill outside of warranty.

I can only speak for myself when I say that warranties have protected me several times. My current daily is an Audi Certified Pre Owned vehicle. Literally 6 days before my extended warranty expired my engine completely ate itself. It cost over $9600 for Audi to install a new long block (basically a new crate motor from Audi). If I had no warranty I would have had to pay all of that. It was fast and convenient and they gave me a loaner while they did the work. If I had a non factory warranty I imagine it would have been a pain in the ass to file a claim, and would probably not gotten a new motor from the manufacturer. It was all taken care of and I didnโ€™t have any hassles or problems (other than my engine eating itself). Before that I had a Ram 1500 Eco Diesel. That engine failed why still under the original factory warranty. I donโ€™t remember what it cost (covered under warranty) but it was traumatic enough that I told myself on the next vehicle (the Audi mentioned above) I would buy a factory extended warranty. That ended up being a wise choice.

In both of those vehicles I was just commuting home and my instrument cluster just turned into a Christmas Tree. Lights all over blinking and telling me to pull over safely. Recently I watched videos about people with similar experiences when their New Tundraโ€™s suffered similar fates. I also have been following the transmission failures of the new Tacomas. For me itโ€™s worth the $2230 for the ten years and 100k miles to cover anything like that happening outside of the three years and 36k miles. I will sleep soundly and not worry. Our Japanese made Land Cruisers are unlikely to have failures like the Tacomas and Tundras made in the Americas. For me the $2230 is a bargain for peace of mind backed by Toyota Financial. I think that warranty retails for $6500 so I understand the hesitation at retail. Okay, I really didnโ€™t want to turn this thread into a why or should you but I also didnโ€™t want to be rude and just refer you to the other thread. I hope this is helpful for you and I wish you the very best my LC friend!
Thanks for this thoughtful note. Does it matter to you that the Platinum warranty does NOT cover the Hybrid battery in our new Land Cruisers? That is one of the most costly components. I would appreciate your thoughts. I kept my last LC for 14 years. But, it was a V8 without a Turbo.

I do believe the battery has a 10 year warranty by itself.

You are correct!! It does appear that there are several Hybrid components not covered, like a harness or two, but, maybe those are non issues.
 
As mentioned previously in this thread Jerry and Troy are prohibited from selling policies in California. California purchasers can only buy from a California dealer and must buy in person. Does anyone know of dealers in the SF Bay area or LA area that have competitive prices?

I've never heard the "in person" part. I also didn't find any CA dealers who would match them. (In any case, complain to your CA state reps about these anti-competitive state laws!)

Edit to add: a random Reddit thread said someone at Modesto Toyota was matching prices a year ago, but no name was given.
